Queen - Action This Day

A video I made for the song Action This Day off of the album Hot Space. Written by Roger Taylor.

Lyrics:
Action

This street honey is a mean street
Living in this street honey needs a mean streak
We've got criminals living in this street
But there's a heartbeat pulse that keeps on pumping
Like a jukebox playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I gotta feeling this world is using me

This town honey is a dead town
Living in this town honey is a let down
Coming to this town honey is a show down
But there's a heartbeat pulse that keeps on pumping
Some sunshine ray through a crack in the shutter
Or a sight of a light at the end of the tunnel
Still there's a feeling this world is using me

Action this day
Action this night
Oh, we've gotta learn to love to live
You can't say it ain't right

Action this day
Action this night
Oh, you've got the power
You've got the power
You've got the power to love and to live
You can't say it ain't right

Your mind honey is a bleak place
Living in you mind's living in a blank space
Your mind is coming from a rat race
But there's a heartbeat pulse that keeps on pumping
Like a jukebox playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I gotta feeling that just won't quit, this world is using me

Action this day, yeah
Action this night, oh
We've gotta learn to love to live
We can't say it ain't right

Action this day, yeah
Action this night, oh
You've got the power
You've got the power
You've got the power to love, to live
You can't say it ain't right

Action, hey, oh, oh
Action this day, oh, oh
Action this day, action this day
Action this day, action this day
Action this day, ha

Action - living in this street, honey
Living in this street, honey
Action - living in this street, street, just a middle street, yeah, come on
Action, yeah, action this day
Action, action, action this day
Action, action this day
Action, action this day
Action, action this day
Action

@Canaveral305 I'm no sure although Roger can go low but well it can sometimes be alittle uncomfortable for him because he's a countertenor. He said the end part of under pressure us to be difficult live because it was a bit low for him and he couldn't put any power on.

Perhaps the most under-rated Queen song, and a great video to boot. I loved every phase of Queen and Freddie, but this is my favorite way to remember him- so active- still full of energy but without the frenetic edge of the first albums- he knows at this point in time he he one of the most loved performers, and he lives up to the love we give Queen.

Damn it I miss this guy. He and the rest of Queen gave us a great example of how to be good despite being famous. Damn I miss him.
